I imagine closer to kick off, it will be given slightly higher prominence on the iPlayer and BBC Sport homepages.
With 20 mins to go it couldn't be any less!

Not in the thread title but this is on the iPlayer/BBC Sport/Red Button.
Cant see it anywhere on the BBC, no sign of this match as of 10 mins ago. Are we sure it's on?

That strip penalty was damaging for Cas. 15 tackles and 6 points.

Ok, this is pushing it a bit but one of our number in Knaresborough mentioned to me about the Wig v Pen match. He'd watched the Rah Rah but was gushing about this match. From Rutland, this is the first time he's ever mentioned RL. This is the value of FTA on a prominent channel I think.

I remember being in The Ship in Cas when rumours that this newly arrived DV² was in the building. "So where's this Darryl bloke then?" I bellowed. This guy looked only very slightly to one side. ".........er...Hello Darryl".
I remember Martin Ketteridge complaining about him, He'd stop for 5 seconds to moan about DV² and from the far end of the field "Come on Betty- keep going". He could read your mind from 100m away.

Cas only just hang on to lose!

Not seen any games tonight (Leeds United or someone playing..) but was cheered by this thread as I searched about looking for SL.
Not so cheery now though as we approach 10pm.
Talk about dropping the ball!
An astonishing hemorrhaging of goodwill!

If I say so myself I'm as miserable as the next RL supporter but these ptb's are a breath of fresh air. So much better as a spectacle.

With neither of these teams playing the Australian Champions next week we could see some clarification of the 13 v 13 finish. A Smith style tackle will surely be a Send Off. Surely?
-
Whilst a Wigan player receiving no ban might be considered "Consistent" surely if a player is contributing to a potential bad outcome then the Castleford player must receive some punishment. Not sure if I should be giving them ideas though....

Practically twilight out there at mid afternoon, hope all the floodlights bulbs are working. Might be dirty windows in the Junction though..

For all the scrappy play, there is a significantly cleaner ruck. It's much easier on the eye in that respect.
I've not seen the game but I find no entertainment at all with the endlessly tedious ugly ptb tripe in SL. Hope to see tomorrow's game....expect more misery ?...I hope not.

The season start got about 6 seconds on R4 at 08:30 this morning(Bah!) but good that it made the Breakfast Show!
-
Sometimes i can get a bit blase about the RL game but some of these tackles would result in manslaughter charges if performed on the High Street. Ouch!

This is really good news for the sport (and me personally as I don't have Sky).
I always used this as an excuse to watch rugby at the pub. Now what am I going to do!!! Chunter... Moan... Bah...

the first game on bbc2 is cas v wigan i thought that had been announced already.
Sorry for being slack but is this game hidden on Red Button or on TV or something else? And how do I find out for myself? All this exposure is confusing me.
-
I'm thinking that this deal, if it happens, will be the first time RL league matches have appeared live on the BBC. Or has it happened before? Back in the day?

If it was officially announced, then yes.
So do we think therefore this announcement is not 'official'? Maybe the BBC are busy today. Is this a bit odd? Still, great news on the face of it!

You might have thought this news would have made the BBC Sports RL page, nowt just now.

As a non player I imagine you'd have to really want to play to put up with the training and playing. To play and be thinking:'I'd much rather be coaching' is startling thing!
Good article.

I know. Soon another year shall be, another year of endless moaning about the speed of the PTB ending with another win by the St PirLoins. Again.

Geordie. Remember talking to some girls from Newcastle in Blackpool around 1984. Still haven't quite got over it.

I just knew that Ncuti would be unbearably irritating but.....it just didnt happen. Despite him scampering about in his Y-Fronts!
The Unleashed programmes are recommended.
